Amber coloured with some fruit aroma. Dry malt finish. SilkTork (3794), Rochester, Kent, England May 14, 2003 Cask, The Shovels, Blackpool. Northumberland have been brewing since 1996, though they did pause in 2002 when they had financial problems. This is a decent amber coloured bitter with an interesting hint of urine and blood orange on the nose. There is a good suggestion of nettle tea in the flavour, plus some tinned lychees. Firm mouthfeel.
